Cloud Tower (I think?)

Burros! biking around RR.

Flexing down after a successful send of Finally.

After the crux on the Yellow Spur Direct Start. Although it still wanders a bit, this is a much more logical way to do the climb than the 5.8 start.

Another photo looking up Turnkorner. Route goes through big roof crack left of center.

El Cap. Really.

Looking up at Turnkorner.

Is there anything better?

Rog finessing another pitch, Casual Route, the Diamond.

Coolest topout ever. Near Independence Pass.

Lower Progressive.

Trying to get a piece on the direct (5.10) start to the Yellow Spur. A brown (or pink?) tri-cam is key here in what appears to be a flaring pin-scar. Otherwise, be tall and fish in a tiny stopper (I had to have my partner place it as I was without said tri-cam).

Ass end of Lower Progressive.

Dark Shadows, the best 5.8 evar.

Things getting weird atop the diamond.

Mean-looking slippery subterranean finger crack. Near Independence Pass.

Racking up below Central Pillar of Frenzy, Yosemite. The snow at the base was the crux of the route.

Getting the first good gear, about 20' up (a 0.75 Camalot). Direct Start, Yellow Spur.
